There is already a thread for our favorite Spagh intros, but generally speaking, which type is your favorite? Mine are the ones with Spagh art and I’d say In a Colt’s Shadow is my favorite. I hate the ones with stills/clips from the film because they’re usually spoilers.
Spaghetti Western art (e.g. Dollars Trilogy intros by Iginio Lardani)
Stills/clips from the film
Protagonist riding in Almeria Desert
Some event of the film happening in the background while the credits are playing
Blank background (e.g. black background with red text)
For me, nothing beats seeing a figure like Robert Woods riding against a beautiful backdrop, accompanied by a fitting, peaceful soundtrack and subtle credits rolling over the top.
I really like those pop art style rotoscope animations. But then again I wouldn’t like that kind of style in film like Once Upon a Time in the West for example.
